If you are buying these for a toddler (who is most likely to need an easy to
grip crayon) they are only so-so. The fact that they stack and have nice colors
make them fun to play with and pretend they are ice cream cones. But they are
quite slick and require you to push very hard on the paper to make them show up,
which is not easy for a toddler. Textured paper works better, but even then you
have to push quite hard.
